Thinking up a healthy lunch can often be a tough task, with many opting for a cheap and quick meal deal, but a nutritionist has come to the rescue with a healthy and easy lunch that only takes five minutes.

In the cold winter months, there’s nothing better than being warmed up by a hot flavoursome bowl of soup and dietician and influencer Emily English has come up with a Thai-inspired gyoza soup that anybody can cook.

With just a handful of ingredients, the can also be adapted to use whatever veg or produce you might have in the fridge to help try and reduce your food waste while also cooking up a tasty treat.

The soup base itself contains just five ingredients: jarred garlic, ginger, and chilli, a big spoonful of Thai red curry paste, and a tin of coconut milk—all of which are pantry essentials and can be ready to be used at a moment’s notice.

For the rest of the ingredients, Emily uses some carrots, tender stem broccoli as well as frozen gyozas and finishes off with some spring onions and a drizzle of chilli oil.
